[quote name='Lozz196' post='1075216' date='Jan 2 2011, 12:43 PM']I had a Terror 500 for a while. Having not been able to put both volume and gain on more than 2, in gig situations, I can`t see why the Terror 1000 has been made. It would probably cause the O2 Arena to collapse![/quote] and heres the pun wow, that really speaks [u]volumes[/u] about this amp. Jokes aside its a really tempting purchase.

[quote name='ahpook' post='1075128' date='Jan 2 2011, 11:22 AM']i'm getting seriously tempted by the 500W model... shouldn't...really shouldn't...[/quote] yeah I think the 1000watt is way overkill for my usage, but that 500w is calling on me.

[quote name='Rasta' post='1074260' date='Jan 1 2011, 11:33 AM']Anyone interested in an SP210 i have one for sale in ther for sale section, great speaker ![/quote] I cant see it in the sale section rasta!!

[quote name='cameltoe' post='1074011' date='Dec 31 2010, 08:45 PM']Get the bass terror 1000w! [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Orange-Terror-Bass-1000~ID~13655.asp"]HERE[/url][/quote] no way is it only a 100bucks extra for a further 500watt output,,,thats so bloody tempting. Plus the option of 500 or 1000 output and 4 or 8ohm impedance. Damn thats got my debit card nervous!!!!

we will be watching it at ma brothers house, viva la bells

[quote name='Bassmonkey' post='1073722' date='Dec 31 2010, 02:44 PM']Ha - my band members are just shaking theit heads in a "I knew he wouldn't be able to resist" kind of way. Just shortened the 30FT Speakon and it all works. I went for the 2x12 purely cos I have a 19" 1U case with tuner and transceiver in it that has to fit on top of the cab and 2x10 was a bit narrower. It may have to go underneath the lot yet. Here's a couple of pics. Yes, I know I am a bit over excited !! Happy New Year all Andy[/quote] thats a lovely Les Paul, wish Gibson made their basses that pretty. Im really considering the orange head with 210. I dont overly enjoy the prospect of luggin the ampeg gear around at gig time!!!!!

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='1073555' date='Dec 31 2010, 10:57 AM']'pretend offended' I don't think anyone was offended. It just seemed a little out-of-place in a civil discussion. That's all.[/quote] exactly!

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='1073515' date='Dec 31 2010, 10:19 AM']Err... that was aimed at bassassin, not you...?[/quote] ah im sorry, reacted without thinking properly. Too many late nights and far too many early mornings. post edited mate. I realise I now appear to be a grumpy git who cant read properly.

[quote name='Bassassin' post='1073265' date='Dec 30 2010, 11:16 PM']With all due respect - bollocks! If this had been a 5-year old Squier the worst it would've got is a bit if pointing & sniggering. J.[/quote] dont get cheeky mate A thought we were past folk being smart arses on here. Turns out we are lined up for it again in 2011.

[quote name='Ou7shined' post='1073162' date='Dec 30 2010, 09:08 PM']but without the kudos (less kudos these days (in my book anyway) now people have hiked their "sell on" price all of a sudden). Sustain? Who knows. Who even cares. Do high mass bridges make any tonal difference? Well, yes. Is it the tonal difference that you were looking for? It would be nice.[/quote] sustain on a bass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!if you need sustain then your just being lazy and not playing all the tune hahahaha.

[quote name='Bassassin' post='1073181' date='Dec 30 2010, 09:35 PM']At the poor taste, certainly. But I wouldn't react as though a sacred relic was being desecrated - it's just a mass-produced bass, there are thousands exactly the same. Different story if someone had decided to do this to a '72 Jazz in 2010, though. That would be incredibly crass. J.[/quote] a dont think anyone really cares what it was to start with,,,we are more disgusted at what its become.

ah sh*t ive slevered all over my keyboard.

out of curiosity, what is the head and cab?

[quote name='Blademan_98' post='1072563' date='Dec 30 2010, 10:58 AM']That looks really cool I like them a lot, and perhaps one day I will have enough to buy a real EB-1 Is it the build quality or just the general feel of Epiphones you don't like? Brian[/quote] The feel of the Epiphones are pretty good in my eyes Brian. You have made a good purchase in that respect. Its the electrics and hardware that let them down IMHO. One of the main reasons I got rid of the EB-1 was that I felt it looked a bit daft on me. Im quite a big chap and I felt it looked a little too small on me. However, in todays market you get what you pay for and im sure you knew that spending 200bucks wasnt going to get you a classic. So again, you have got a bass that you like the looks of, you have played and are happy with and feel its iconic in the respect of Jack Bruce playing something similar. To me thats a win, win, win to you mate. I hope you have years of fun with it.

Aye the gibson Jack used was the EB-1 which is approx 2,500 plus change.... The epiphone copy was again the EB-1which is what I finally found after hankering for one for a long long time. However it wasnt with me long and after a few epiphones after that I decided the brand just isnt for me.

ha, just informed that its my little cousins pal Jemma thats on keyboard on this show. How did I miss that!!!!

Hola all. Ok I just took ownership of a markbass CMD102P combo. I have been hankering for some markbass gear for a while and jumped at the chance when this came up. So first feelings on the combo is that its powerful and very articulate. every note rings true and I feel I may have to polish up my technique a tad to be able to use this live, it turns out me as a player may not be good enough to use this amp hahahahaha. All joking aside of course this is a monster of a combo. I used it for a little while with both the bongo and jag. I was blown away with it funnily more so with the jag even though its half the price of the bongo. Goes to show price aint everything. I was also foolish enough to crank it whilst I went into another room,,,,,lets just say I may have some structual damage to my spare room with this little light combos awesome voice. I would consider the ampeg gear I have still my main sound, however I cant wait to take this to rehearsals. I havent had to much time to get tore into the eq and the VLE and VPE dials, so hopefully I will get a cracking sound quite easily. Does anyone have any EQ settings for rock/blues type sounds to get me started. I will no doubt be playing with its dials for weeks as I always do, but a bit of a starting reference would be cool. Wee pic as always:
